Summary from the notice

Request For Information : Unmanned Ground Recovery PROBLEM STATEMENT: Current vehicle recovery operations in contested environments are resource-intensive and expose Soldiers to adversarial threats. These missions require significant manpower, including specialized maintenance and security teams, and are fundamentally constrained by human endurance limits. The recovery usually happens in a contested environment, which often leads to network communications being Denied, Degraded, Intermittent, and Limited (DDIL). All of these factors decrease the Army’s capability to conduct continuous ground recovery operations. INTRODUCTION: The Government is conducting market research and seeking information on cutting-edge innovations and existing systems in uncrewed tactical autonomy and robotic manipulation designed or adapted for military recovery operations that may inform future requirements development and acquisition planning. The objective is to identify robust, ruggedized solutions capable of or, adaptable to, executing complex recovery tasks in contested, degraded, and operationally demanding environments. The Army Sustainment Community is interested in advanced, low-logistics solutions to reduce the overall resource demand, personnel footprint, and exposure time required to execute recovery missions under Denied, Degraded, Intermittent, and Limited (DDIL) network conditions. We are open to modifications to existing Army platforms or entire separate systems to enhance the Army’s …
